The Queendom of Thorn73 is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.61 billion Thorn73ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.6%.

The all-consuming Thorn73ian economy, worth 273 trillion Euros a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 104,889 Euros, with the richest citizens earning 7.3 times as much as the poorest.

The blood, sweat, and tears of poor Thorn73ians make research institutes rich, multilingual concierges man empty inner city apartment blocks, meteorologists warn of fog just past 4pm daily, and cheese has been labelled a dangerous weapon and banned. Crime is moderate. Thorn73's national animal is the Scorpion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Thorn73 is ranked 17,424^th in the world and 138^th in Suspicious for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 7,818.34 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
